Anyone watching THIS IS ENGLAND? - Channel 4.

[Paxton Dazo]

The Clothes and the Music..

Good film too.

 

[chez]

I'm sky+ing it. It's meant to be an excellent film - apparently right up my street.

 

[csider]

got the dvd innit.

good film. but was a thread on here recently with other views.

 

[Paxton Dazo]

The bit that confuses me is when that 18 year old, gets with Tommy Turgoose?

Slightly unrealistic....

 

[Paxton Dazo]

I love all the clothes in it, except them blue camaflouge trousers

 

[csider]

was a mod when 13-14. like the skinhead look, crombies etc. i would be pissed off now if a skin as queers seem to have adopted the look..!

 

[Freddie Goodwin.]

Those gay fella's were pretty clever ay hijaqcking the skinhead look.

Pretty good film but saw it not so long ago so gave it a miss tonight.

 

[Paxton Dazo]

Fred Pezza Polo, Harry Jacket & Levi 501's

 

[Freddie Goodwin.]

Not forgetting brighton's very own Ben Sherman.

 

[Paxton Dazo]

Not forgetting brighton's very own Ben Sherman.

Yeah, but i aint got one of them.

Want one though.

 

[Fazz62]

Not forgetting brighton's very own Ben Sherman.

FG

Just found this old photo.

Is it really you??

 

[Paxton Dazo]

Nah, FG is more of a CHERRY RED , fan in the Doc Marten department.

Even i know that.

 

[bright1064]

Just watched it for the first time tonight.

f***ing QUALITY film

 

[Paxton Dazo]

Yeah, sad ending though

 

[bright1064]

It shows the skinhead rascists up for what they really were...deluded scum.

Some brilliant acting from the little kid and also the scouser who played 'Tommy' in Snatch.

Great film.

 

[Paxton Dazo]

Yeh that little kid aint even an actor.

 

[bright1064]

I know! I read about that. It was his first acting role and he demanded £5 just to do the audition, cheeky sod!!

On a more serious note. His mum died about a year before the film was released. Now you can see why he gets so emotional about the death of his 'fictional' dad in the film.

 

[John Boy]

Watched it for the first time last night, quality film, but slightly let down by the ending

 

[El Presidente]

Watched it for the first time last night, quality film, but slightly let down by the ending

I think a few on NSC were very disappointed that the National Front didn't win the election at the end of the film. Bet the director was a LEFTIE

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Leftie - you mean Guardian reading, political correctness gone mad, leftie brigade surely? [is that the right nomenclature...I can never get all the clichés in the right order]
